Answer:

The correct answer is "Is there a pattern to the movement of homologous chromosomes in the presence of this compound?"

Explanation:

A compound that prevents the separation of the homologous chromosomes in anaphase I is of great interest since it will cause cell cycle arrest, an effect that is looked in anti-cancer drugs. However, a throughout study of the compound must be done before it could be used for clinical trials. One of the questions that could be answered in this study is: "Is there a pattern to the movement of homologous chromosomes in the presence of this compound?". The answer of this question will let us know if the cells will go to apoptosis, which is what we look for in an anti-cancer drug.

Mendel studied seven traits in pea plants. One of the monohybrid crosses he made was between plants with round seeds and plants
Finger [1]

Answer:

A. The dominant factor, or allele, is for round seeds.

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs inheritance. During his numerous experiments, he conducted a cross in pea plants involving a single character. This cross is called MONOHYBRID CROSS. In one of these monohybrid crosses, he observed the gene for seed shape in pea plants. He discovered that two alleles are responsible for the expression of this gene: round allele (R) and wrinkled allele (r).

He crossed plants that produced only round seeds i.e. homozygous RR and plants that produced only wrinkled seeds, rr. He observed that the F1 offsprings were all round-seeded. This made him to propose his LAW OF DOMINANCE, which states that an allele is capable of masking the expression of another in a gene. He concluded that the round allele is covering the wrinkled allele in a heterozygous state, since it is expressed over it. He then called the round allele, DOMINANT allele and the wrinkled allele, RECESSIVE allele.
